Background

DevOps Summit, Paris: The Practitioners’ Perspective – 17 Nov 2016

The term “DevOps” typically refers to the emerging professional movement that advocates a collaborative working relationship between Development and IT Operations, resulting in the fast flow of planned work achieving the value stream that is between the business (where requirements are defined) and the customer (where value is delivered). But DevOps does not yet have precise or prescriptive practice methods. To meet its urgency to “speed production and so the time to market”, many organisations are finding that ITSM skills that they had invested in, fit in very well with DevOps’ Agile collaborative and quickening business tempo. Enterprises with legacy systems of ITIL, ITSM are finding that DevOps are a perfect cultural match and a winning combination.

The continuous delivery of valuable software, or working software, is a measure of progress. Business people and developers must work together to make the project a success. But before you consider adopting new technology and methods, consider the challenges within your organization that that needs addressing. Change must be approached as a project-by-project advancement rather than suddenly and completely.
